Noah Wyle’s return as Dr. Robby inThe Pittseason 2 was already exciting, but the newest addition to the cast of Max’s hit medical drama makes it even harder to wait for. In an almost unprecedented timeline for streaming shows,The Pittseason 2is just months away, even though theending ofThe Pittseason 1was released in April. As the show quickly makes progress, we’ve gotten more news aboutThe Pittseason 2, including its timeline, the fact that it will follow Dr. Langdon’s (Patrick Ball) return to the hospital, and even some updates about thecast ofThe Pitt.
With all the new information being released aboutThe Pittseason 2,the upcoming season was already a highly anticipated release.The Pittdid, after all, break streaming records for Max, and it was the definition of a critical darling. There’s also so much to look forward to, from thereturning characters inThe Pittseason 2to getting a new glimpse into the lives of some beloved doctors and nurses. One bit of news aboutThe Pittseason 2, however, makes the show even more exciting than it was before, and it should have a big impact on Dr. Robby.
The Pitt Season 2 Cast Another Attending Physician
The Pitt Season 2 Has Now Cast Attendings, Residents, Nurses, & Even Patients
Varietyhas confirmed that Sepideh Moafi was cast as a new character inThe Pittseason 2. Moafi is known for a few hit shows, such asThe Deuce, where she played Loretta, andThe L Word: Generation Q, where she played Gigi Ghorbani, as well as a few movies likeThe Killing of Two LoversandBest Man in the Dark. According to the report,Moafi will play a yet-unnamed attending physician inThe Pittseason 2, and she’ll have a recurring role in the upcoming season. Moafi’s casting also comes afterThe Pittseason 2 added four new actors, including doctors, nurses, and a patient.
It’s also very likely that Moafi’s attending physician will have a close relationship with Dr. Robby.Moafi has reportedly been cast in a recurring role, andThe Pitt’s real-time format indicates that she’ll be in the emergency room at the same time as Robby. We also know thatThe Pittseason 2 takes place over the Fourth of July weekend, so it’s entirely possible that PTMC called in a larger group of doctors than normal, which may require two attending physicians to properly manage. In any case, we know that Moafi’s character and Robby will interact in some way; we just don’t know how yet.
How Sepideh Moafi’s Casting In The Pitt Season 2 Will Affect Dr. Robby
Moafi’s Character Could Provide Either Support Or Even More Tension For Dr. Robby In The Pitt Season 2
It’s too early to tell what Sepideh Moafi’s character inThe Pittseason 2 will be like, but we can speculate about what kind of effect she’ll have on Robby.There are two main choices for Moafi’s character: she can either be a rival to Robby or a new source of support for him. If she’s a rival, she could injectThe Pittseason 2 with a new layer of tension and stress, especially as Robby’s patient satisfaction ratings and wait times bog him down. Moafi’s attending physician could beThe Pittseason 2’s version of the stress Robby felt about the anniversary of Dr. Adamson’s death.
Alternatively, Moafi’s attending physician could be another friend of Robby’s and an integral part of his support system.Dana (Katherine LaNasa) may not come back inThe Pittseason 2after she presumably quit, which would leave Robby without a peer he can really talk to and understand.Moafi’s attending physician could basically fill Dana’s role inThe Pittseason 2 and give Robby a way to release some tension with a trusted friend(even if he won’t accept the help that’s offered). Either way, Moafi’s character should highlight some new sides of Robby inThe Pittseason 2, and I’m very excited to see who she is.
